There are different theologies of religious life espoused by different communities. A good thing since no one’s call is exactly the same as others’. However God calls us to be alive, loving women and I’m glad to have been called to a group that lives that out. No IHM would insist that my family call me Sister. Thanks for your comment.

We nuns are not as visible as we once were in the days that we staffed schools and hospitals and orphanages, etc. Perhaps that causes some of the ignorance. I appreciate and echo your “the more questions like this answered, the better.” So keep them coming!

Most people (me included, till now) know next to nothing about a Nuns life. This leads to ignorance and the way I see it, the more questions like this answered, the better.
I’m looking forward to more Q&A!
